Notice of Agenda for November 7, 2022 Hearing — In re Kabbage, Inc. d/b/a KServicing (Bankr. D. Del.)

Summary

The debtors' notice of agenda for a hearing scheduled for November 7, 2022 at 1:00 p.m. before Judge Craig T. Goldblatt in In re Kabbage, Inc. d/b/a KServicing, et al., Case No. 22-10951 (CTG), jointly administered Chapter 11 cases in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, filed 11/03/22 as Doc 199. It lists six resolved matters on which the court has already entered orders, including the retention of Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A., Greenberg Traurig, LLP and Jones Day, so no hearing on them is needed. The hearing on the cash management motion is postponed to November 21, 2022 at 1:00 p.m. Two matters go forward: the motion for limited use of cash collateral, with informal comments from the U.S. Trustee, Cross River Bank, Synovus and the SBA, and the motion to approve a settlement agreement with Customers Bank. Amanda R. Steele signs for the debtors' counsel.
